I’m currently an associate professor in the School of Computer Science and Engineering at Beihang University (BUAA). Before that, I received my Ph.D. degree from Beihang University, under the supervision of Prof. Jianxin Li. Further before, I obtained the B.S. degree from Xidian University.

My research interests include Deep Graph Learning, Agent and Trustworthy AI. Please feel free to send me an email if interested to discuss or work together.

[Prospective students] Our group has positions for Ph.D. students, Master students, and visiting students. If you are interested, please send me an email with your CV and publications (if any).
